Tubal Reversal

I haven't had one myself but do know someone who had this done over twenty years ago with great results. The bottom line is that you'll never know until you try.

Good Luck,

It is completely normal to want to have a baby when you fall in love. I have three children of my own and my husband has two teenagers. I went through a period of really wanting to have a baby with him (even though we already have FIVE between us) I wanted to share that experience with HIM because I am so in love. I still have that urge at times.

My advice to you is this: really take your time making this decision. You are saying you are in a new relationship, but are you married? Engaged? What kind of commitment is this new love ready to make to you and a possible child? I am not judging, because I know it takes all kinds of families to complete our lives, but ask yourself is this what is best for a baby? Is this best for you? Are you really ready to start that all over again, waking up at all hours of the night, changing diapers, ALL THAT LAUNDRY. Having a baby is wonderful, don't get me wrong, but you already had two...and now you are at a stage where you have a little more freedom.
These are all the things I considered.
Having a baby puts a new angle and sometimes stress on a love relationship. Maybe you need to just have time for eachother now.
Take your time...and use your head, not just your heart to make this decision.
Best wishes!

I am concerned about the "new relationship" and your 2 girls. They are already going to be competing with the guy for your attention, it would be very hard on them. Plus, you arent even married yet, and a baby causes issues in any relationship. I would hold off on it and focus your attentions on your girls and see if this relationship pans out. Its none of my business, but your 2 little girls need your love and attention right now.

I agree with Kerry. You said "a new relationship". This raises red flags for me. Most new relationships aren't ready for the strain of a new baby. Is this relationship headed for marriage? If so, why not wait until you're married to try for another baby? If not, ask yourself if it's a good idea to bring a child into a relationship that's not going to end in marriage.

Call me old fashioned, but I think the ideal situation for childrearing is a family with a committed mom and dad. This doesn't necessarily mean marriage, but the relationship should at least be seasoned enough that you both know it will withstand time and bumps in the road.

I don't know what kind of high risk preg you had last time but if your life was at risk then another preg could put you at the same risk or higher. Is it worth your life to have another child and possibly leave 3 children without a mother? What about adoption?

I have, and I am writing a guide on how to get this done, I have been researching tubal reversals for a long time, I had my tubal reversal in 2001, and have had 3 babies since. I can recommend several doctors, and tell u which ones to run from. I also run a support group on yahoo, Tubal Reversal Club, go to groups on yahoo and search, join that and u will find lots of women who are in the same situation and get lots of great info! You are welcome to message me privately.

My sister-in-law had a tubal reversal. Everything went very well and she now has a beautiful son who 8-years-old. She seems to be doing great.

Were it not for a very successful tubal reversal I would not have my two spectacular little sisters. My mom had her tubes tied, untied, then eventually tied again. My sisters are 21 and 22 now, so it isn't a new process and maybe it is even more successful now? Good luck!

I didn't have a high risk pregnancy but had my tubes tied after my oldest was born. When we decided we wanted another baby I just did in vitro. It's expensive, but medical expenses are tax deductible when you spend that much in a year so you do get SOME of it back.

My thought would be to start saving for it. Find out how much you need for your area and start putting it aside. Talk to your doc about the saftey for you now. In the time it takes to save up enough to have it reversed ( and maybee redone) or some other option you may change your mind. I like the invitro idea. I would love to realy have sound advise for you but it is such a personal decision!
